. A human mind can hold 3,000 demons. A pig’s mind cannot hold one!

Question 1: “What are ‘bad thoughts’?”
Answer: “Any thought that keeps us from obeying Any Teaching of Jesus is a ‘bad thought’.”
~
Question 2: “Do ‘bad thoughts’ come from demons, or are ‘bad thoughts’ actually demons living in our mind?”
Answer: “Catholics are blessed to Think Clearly about the man who had 3,000 demons driven from his mind. Three passages tell us about him: Matthew 8:28-34, Mark 5:1-20, and Luke 8:26-39. The Bible tells us that even demons Think Clearly enough to ask Jesus to save them!”
~
Question 3: “What! Did actual ‘demons’ ask Jesus for His Mercy?”
Answer: “Mark 8:30-31 is clear! ‘Some distance from them (Jesus and the man possessed by 3,000 demons) a large herd of pigs was feeding. The demons begged Jesus, “If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.’ It is clear! Three thousand demons ‘begged’ Jesus for His Mercy!”
~
Question 4: “What can we learn from that?”
Answer: “Catholic learn a simple lesson. People who willfully and knowingly choose to not ‘beg’ Jesus Christ for His Merciful Help are ‘dumber than demons’.”
~
Question 5: “I never thought of that! Does that tell us about the comparative size of every person’s brain?”
Answer: “The spirit, mind, and body of one pig cannot handle one demon. A human being can stay alive, though mentally disturbed, with 3,000 demons living in his or her brain!”
~
Question 6: “Does The Bible tell us how Jesus answered the plea to Him from the 3,000 demons?”
Answer: “Mark 28:32 is clear! ‘He said to the demons, “Go!” So they came out (of the man) and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and died in the water.’”
~
Question 7: “Are some people proud of having dozens, hundreds, or 3,000 demons living in their minds?”
Answer: “The more demons in a mind, the more proudly and loudly a person proclaims: ‘I know more than God about what is best for me.’”
~
Question 8: “Is there a way that we can keep demons from dragging our immortal soul into hell?”
Answer: “Jesus Christ gives His ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ to all who choose to obey His Word :
‘And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys of The Kingdom of Heaven.’”
~
Catholics may ask: “Is anyone who chooses to not ask God for His Merciful Help ‘dumber than a demon?
